5.0 out of 5 stars Best sleaze debut album in years!!,
I can not stress to you just how good this album is!

If you are a fan of sleaze rock, then when you hear this album you will understand it when I say that this album is up there with Skid Rows debut and dare I say it, not too far behind Guns N’ Roses’ Apetite for Destruction! If this album had been released anywhere between 1987-1989, it most certainly would now be regarded as a classic.

This is the debut album from Swedish rockers, Crashdiet. Released in 2005, this four piece truly created something special. There are no fillers on this album, every song is a classic in itself.

The opening four tracks, are the “big four” so to speak. From the opening track “Knock Em Down” to the sound of those sirens and the bass which open “Riot in Everyone”, you know you’re listening to an album thats full on sleaze rock, but still mature in its song writing. These guys know what they’re doing and they deliver it with style.

“Queen Obscene’ is definitely a track destined for the dance floor (a good sing-a-long head-banger)and the anthemic “Breakin’ the Chainz”, will have you singing the chorus on the first listen, but hey so will the others! 😉

“Its a Miracle” is an amazing ballad, more in the vein of GNRs Rocket Queen than a Sweet Child O’ Mine, and to be honest, its up there with it.

If you are lucky enough to buy the Japanese version of this album, you will get another great ballad in “Tomorrow”, a song that should have made it on the regular release.

I am not exaggerating in what I say about this album. I love sleaze, so maybe I’m biased, but this is a mature sleaze rock album. Something that most bands in the sleaze scene don’t have unfortunately, and that’s maturity in the song writing. Maturity does not make it less sleazy, it actually makes it even more sleazy and something you will want to listen to again and again. Its catchy, its sleazy and you know on the first listen that these guys know how to play and know what they’re doing.

Dave Lepards vocals and lyrics are amazing, but tragically he passed away in January 2006. This album now exists as a classic reminder of his work but also as the classic debut that has paved the way for Crashdiet to continue with new vocalist, Ollie.

You will not be disappointed!!!
